A Word About Catarrh.

THE KLNGMAN SALT FIND,

It looks as if Kansas would, in the
near future, have not only world sup
ply of sugar, but of salt also. Two holes
drilled at Wichita found inexhaustible
supplies of salt water, which both anylitic
and practical tests showed to be of the
strongest and purest character. At
Nngman, at Hutchinson and at Ellis
worth the drills struck immense deposits
of pure rock salt formations. Down in
Comanche county these deposits crop
out in lodges which, it is said, can be
worked. Heretofore we have feared
that trouble at Kingman and Hutchin-
son, and probably at Ellsworth, would
be encountered in the matter Of overlay-
ing beds of quicksand, through any
great body or strata of which it is utter
ly impossible to shaft so far as King
mans find is concerned that fear has
been set at rest. Mr.. Gates, who was in
the city yesterday, and who had samples
of the salt-which are pure and white as
snow-informs us that the entire dis,
lance from the surface of the ground
down to fifty or sixty foot vein of solid
salt is through a rock formation. This
being the case there is no reason, so far
as we know. why the Kingman find is
not fortune to the men who
shall go down to it. Mr.. Gates, for his
own satisfaction, evaporated pint Of
the water taken from the Kingman drill
hole. The result, which he left with US,
is two ounce bottle nearly full of very
strong and very white salt. Mr.. c. says
that the water is SO strong and heavy
that it will hold no more salt in solu-
ton,

Henry Georges persistent discussion
of his land theories seems to have made
an impression upon the minds of at least
some of the thinking men Of the country.
The land question was made subject for
discussion before the National Baptist
convention at indianapolis Monday
evening and elected some pointed sug-
gestions as to the policy of the govern
msnt for the future in the matter Of
homesteads, exemptions, etc. "a from. ex-
Senator DooEttle of Chicag8and Chief
Justice Zollers of Indiana. These sug-
gestions, while they will hardly form
basis of immediate action On the part of
the government, state or national, will
nevertheless serve as a more comprehen-
sive text for study than Georges
vagaries. Mr.. Doolittle's seem to be
based in part upon the old Jewish prac-
tice during their national identity and
occupation of Palestine. In that con-
nection the subject is an interesting one
for theorists to study and mayhap it will
some day furnish a key for the satisfac-
tory solution of what now seems a COM
ple4 problem.

BEEF AND PORK,

The wealth of southwestern, and a
portion of the central region Of Kansas,
is in its famous natural pasturage.
Countless herds of buffalo, for centuries,
fattened upon the nutritious grasses,
whose place was gradually usurped by
droves Of Texas steers as the monarch of
the prairie and the Indian passed away
before the encroachment of the white
man. Following these the long horns Of
the Lone Star state, came the high bred
Durham and the Polled Angus, the Here
ford and the Holstein. These pasturages
are the same today as hundred years
ago; will be the same for years to come.
Kansas is the home of beef and pork for
the continent, and the fiat has
gone forth that it must be
slaughtered nearer home than
Kansas City or Chicago, hence the initia-
tory move in establishing large packing
houses in Wichita. This fact will give a
new impetus 10 cattle raising, that is
each farmer within convenient distances
of these slaughter houses will raise a few
beeves yearly, and new source of reve-
nue. is thus developed. The DAYS of i'm
mense herds are numbered, for the
range is no longer the wilderness it once
was; the land is owned, cut up into
farms and small ranches, consequently
there can never be again in Kansas such
a concentration of animals in one herd
as there was once, but every farmer will
raise animals, and while in the aggre-
gate the number will not be so great
as when the range was free. still it will
amount to an immense figure, and the
Gze and quality of the cattle will be
much superior. The establishment of
packing house at this point brightens
the prospects of every farmer not only
in this Immediate country, but in the
whole region OF the west and southwest.
Corn will bring greater price than ever
before, that is, it will net more per
bushel, because it will all be fed at home.

HOG-KILLING IN CHICAGO.

From Letter TO the London Times.
To kill and prepare 200 to 1900
beeves and 5000 to 10000 hogs in one
day requires a complete system. The
steers are driven into long pens, and an
expert rifieman, walking upon plat
form over them, discharges rifle shot
into the brain, just behind the horns.
The killing is instantaneous. the steer,
! without even a groan, falling like a
log. The animal is then drawn
forward from the pen, the
hide quickly removed and the
carcass prepared and cut up ready for
storage in the ''chill-rooms' and subSe
quent shipment. These beef-killing pro-
cesses are speedily performed, but the
science most thoroughly developed Is
the hog-killing. These animals are
driven up an inclined roadway into
pen in the upper part of the packing
house. Men keep the procession con-
stantly moving. and when the hog ar
rives at the proper place chain is deity
fastened around his hind leg. The steam
machinery jerks up the squealing hog, so
that he hangs head downwards upon q
sliding frame; his throat is cut, the blood
spouang Caracas slide along the frame,
and, in a moment, being drained of
blood, it is dropped into vat of boiling
water. This scalds it, and being quickly
lifted out it rolls over table into a re-
volving machine that scrapes it clean of
bristles. Then the carcass is passed
along a sliding table, washed, again
hung up, beheaded, disembowled, split
heightened inclined railway to be hung
Of
alongside the machinery perform the
transport them by gravity through
the different processes, which sue
coed each other with such rapidity that
in a few minutes the porker is finally
disposed of. This is done by moving the
carcass to a broad block, whore half a
dozen butchers standing around stimuli
taneously attack it, and in a twinkling it
is converted into hams, sides and Shout
ders, and the various parts are SeIrt off
to their respective departments. Every
portion of the hog is utilized for meats
lard, sauSages or canned goods, and the
blood and other offal are converted into
fertilizer. Enormous sausage making
machines grind and cut the
scraps, and scores of women
are busily engaged in packing and label
ing the tins. These wonderful processes
attract many visitors, and the American
rustic who has been accustomed to DIE
farmers Christmas frolic Of the ''hog-
killing" where elaborate preparations
are made for the slaughter Of probably
half dozen, looked with amazement
upon this wholesale summary disposal
of the animals in Chicago. Great as this
wonderful city IS in everything, it seems
that the first place among its strong
points must be given to the CELEBRITY and
omprehensiveness of the Chicago sys-
tenn of killing hogs.

WICHITA'S WAY.

From the Richmond, (ky.) Register.
Another instance of the untilnchlng
energy and push of the western people
comes this week from the newly tiedged
city of Wichita. They have secured the
location of the third largest pork pack
ing establishment in the world. The
concern made a proposition to the board
of trade to do business there for the sum
of one hundred and seventy-tive thou
sand dollars and location. The subject
was discussed by the citizens, and IN
twelve hours the amount was subscribed
and the ground secured. The plant is
said to be worth one million dollars, and
it Will be worth many thousands every
year to the people of Wichita. Yet the

RAvANNA IS THE COUNTY SEAT.
To the Editor of the Eagle.
RAVANNA Kan Nov Il

10 the Eullor OF The Eagle.
RAvANNA, Kan, Nov, IS.
I see by your paper that Garden City
would create the impression that there
is fraud in the election of Garfield
county for permanent county seat,
especially in Center township.
The final canvass by the board shows
that Ravanna has a majority of 45. Poll
books, registration and everything is all
straight, and if there is any fraud l don't
know it, nor how it could have been
done. Center township polled 341 votes,
when they ought to have polled 400, or
very near; it fell short so or 80 votes of
what was expected; therefore, can't
see how there could have been fraud in
the way they claim. Mr.. Crow, of En-
inence, was inside by the ballot box all
the time, and when he came out at the
close of the count he said he could not
see anything wrong. Mr.. Maggie also
states that they would not give them a
representative on the election board.
The board was elected in the morning at
the opening of the polls, and the people
that were present elected them. Now it
was out of the power of anyone to say
who should be the judges and clerks, as
they were elected by those present. In
Garfield township Ravanna had no rep
rpSpDtatiyn on the hoard nor had they
any in Kalvesta township. Now I think
the judges and clerks of the election
throughout the whole county as far as I
am acquainted are gentlemen of honor,
and would not do anything wrong, but
would see that there was fair and hon
est count of the votes cast.
